ixnay on the talking. vice president joe biden took the final topic of last night's debate, issue of abortion rights and hit paul ryan with it pretty forcefully. >> if anyone had a doubt about what's at state in this election, when it comes to women's rights, and the supreme court, i'm sure they were said last night. it was made clear last night that they don't believe in protecting a woman's access to health care. it was made very clear that they do not believe a woman has a right to control her own body. these guys have a social policy out of the '50s. >> that was joe biden's first major campaign appearance today after last night's big event with paul ryan. now, paul ryan's first public appearance after last night's debate was not that moment on the tarmac with mitt romney with the funny microphone, it was actually this. his campaign did one of those odd way too personal things where they allowed the press in to witness his family doing an otherwise normal family thing. in this case eating breakfast. it

the big bird line is effective against romney if you put it in the context you put it in. that it's 1/100th of 1% of the budget. or six hours of pentagon spending. but the fact that we're focusing on that underscores the things that weren't picked up in what romney said. in preparing for this show, i notice the something i hadn't noticed before. romney said in the debate, i'm not going to reduce the share of taxes paid by high-income people. that's exactly what george w. bush said in the 2000 debate. you can cut rich people's taxes by a whole lot of money and still have them pay the same share of the total. so that's what he was really saying. he said he's going to cut everybody's taxes by 20%. and then he said in the debate, we're not going to have tax cuts that add to the deficit. if this is math, it's math on meth. it just doesn't add up at all. and i think that's the issue that has to be raised over and over again. and then big bird is really a good illustration of how, in addition to the tax cuts and military spending, all he talks about is big bird and has to be turn

i talked to ted olson and david boyce about it today. watch. mitt romney and paul ryan are pledging a federal constitutional amendment to define marriage as only for straight people at the federal level, which is unchanged from a george w. bush promise that went unfulfilled. they're also promising to defend doma with the democrats stopping doing that right now under this administration, the house republicans are defending doma. why isn't the republican party following public opinion on this? and why would you want to elect mitt romney and paul ryan in this circumstance given how you feel about it? >> you may have overlooked the fact that for the last few weeks i've been joe biden. >> mr. olson has been playing the part of joe biden in paul ryan's debate prep which will help paul ryan get better at debating which will help him become vice president which would be bad for gay rights. right? >> or could persuade him on this issue. don't understate the possibility that dialogue and talking about these issues makes a difference. not just independent
